Info:
Karimi has used Türkiye-based Tit Uluslararasi Nakliyat Deri Tekstil Gida Sanayi Ve Ticaret Limited Sirketi (Uluslararasi) as another front company to facilitate procurements for Iranian defense end-users, including the IRGC ASF SSJO. Uluslararasi has been involved in the shipment of epoxy resin and other items to Iran in support of Karimi’s procurements for the IRGC ASF SSJO.
Germany-based dual Iranian-German national Maziar Karimi (Karimi) has procured epoxy resin and other items for Iran’s IRGC ASF SSJO using a complex web of intermediaries and front companies. Karimi is a long-time procurement agent who has supported Iran’s defense industry since at least 2013.
Karimi is being designated pursuant to E.O. 13382 for having provided, or attempted to provide, financial, material, technological or other support for, or goods or services in support of, the IRGC ASF SSJO, a person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to E.O. 13382. Mazixon GmbH and Mazixon Verwaltungs are being designated pursuant to E.O. 13382 for being owned or controlled by Karimi, a person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to E.O. 13382. MAA and Uluslararasi are being designated pursuant to E.O. 13382 for having provided, or attempted to provide, financial, material, technological or other support for, or goods or services in support of, the IRGC ASF SSJO.
These networks have procured carbon fiber, epoxy resins, and other missile-applicable goods for Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Aerospace Force Self Sufficiency Jihad Organization (IRGC ASF SSJO), Ministry of Defense and Armed Forces Logistics (MODAFL), other U.S.-designated entities in Iran’s defense industrial base, and Iran Centrifuge Technology Company (TESA), which is linked to the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI).
“Through complex covert procurement networks, Iran seeks to supply rogue actors around the world with weapons systems that fuel conflict and risk countless civilian lives,” said Under Secretary of the Treasury for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence Brian E. Nelson. “The United States will continue to use our tools to disrupt these networks and hold accountable those countries that would help proliferate Iran’s drones and missiles.”
